Cyba Scoops installed!
Had these laying around for awhile. Decided to add them tonight when I got home from 2 months of working in NYC straight. Fitment was 9.5/10. Added the gloss black performance kidney grills while I was at it.

Sweet. I have a different brand on mine. Although the way the air flows to the airbox, i don't think it can truly be called "ram air". Not like I had on my R1 where the air was forced directly to the engine. In the M3, it basically forces air over to the filter but not really directly into the pipe if you get what i mean.

Idk if its a placebo effect, but it sounds like something is whirring (in a cool way) as I am driving. Also, it was 36 degrees last night so the car felt much faster, but I know that's because it was colder.
But, I am happy with the fact that it looks cool and sinister.

I have the MS scoops installed and it's definitely good for at least 50-60 hp...he he. I can really feel the difference when I drive off a cliff...the air flow is tremendous.

i wonder how much of the air that gets "scooped" in just gets blown out of the hood vent for the intake.

The M3 is already porting cool air from 3 locations, the lower front bumper, behind the kidney grills and the driver's hood vent..I suspect these could even add turbulence that would disrupt the normal air flow..either way ..they dont add any performance. |
